Abstract (English)Editors Marchessault and Straw briefly outline the topics broached in this issue of Public, which originated from an interdisciplinary research project called “The Culture of Cities Project.” Dedicated to the study of “scenes” – described here as “phenomenal elements in the cultural life of cities” – the essays deal with subjects such as: the matinée and daydreaming; film scenes and cities; Montreal’s anglophone music scene and art “biennalism”; Russian and Eastern Jews in Berlin; and Toronto’s diasporic public spheres. Includes six artists’ projects (mostly photography) on similar themes. Brief biographical notes on contributors. Circa 300 bibl. ref. Edit this item (login required): |
